Proven and reliable jointing methods

Heated plate butt welding

Homogeneous welding connections across the entire wall thickness provides a monolithic system that maintains its full pressure rating without any weak points. Long-term and proven welding method that is available for all dimensions!

Clean, fast, safe

AGRU offers highly automated welding procedures with full documentation and traceability. This welding method requires less labor and keeps you one step ahead of any other fusion technology.

Flange connections

AGRU supplies mechanical connections that enable detachable transitions to buildings and/or other pipe materials.

Project optimized, detachable, safe

Pipe branches

The spigot saddle system topload utilizes a specialized clamping system that offers an efficient and flexible solution to create branches that are electro-fusion welded to existing or new pipelines in on- or offshore locations.

Design-flexible, safe

Offshore float and sink installation, made easy by the AGRU PE 100(-RC) Piping Systems

  • The floating PE 100(-RC) pipe is pulled into the water and placed to its final postion.
  • Valves are opend and water flows into the pipe - controlled sinking process is progressing.
  • The pipe is connected to the intake structure on the ocean ground.
  • The pipe is covered by back-fill material to protect it and to keep it in place.

Smart logistical solutions by AGRU 

  • Break-bulk shipment
  • Flat-rack transport
  • Towing transport
  • Container transport
